Time ADHX All-Road bike after 1000 miles. Is the honeymoon over?

[@Dwyane1st]

What a lovely bike. Have my eyes on the Alpe d'Huez now for quite a while

[@feshfeshsailing]

Go for it if you haven't yet. Got my Time AH01 about a year ago even though my BMC TeamMachine was only 2 years old at the time, and I think I'll ride this AH01 until it falls apart.

[@zimmejoc]

What an awesome shade of green.

[@oldguyandabike]

I have not tired of it yet! gg

[@mines851]

Thanks so much...just about to pull the trigger on my own new ADHX and this really helps. My riding pattern and needs are so similar to yours and how you summed up how this bike fits sounds like just what i am looking for. Thank you !

[@oldguyandabike]

Happy to help. Just did a big ride on it…see the latest video on the Climb To Kaiser. It did me proud. gg

[@wiseoldman5841]

Great review young man..very linear and concise. Rock the plad..my daughter took away all mine years ago..apparently she didn't like the look on me! Lol.

[@alexbennett2709]

Thanks for the review, cracking looking bike and love the green, it might be my next bike.

[@modemarcoj8026]

Phenomenal breakdown and love the raw vibe Yes the Ti is the business indeed I’m currently on a 2022 Time Scylon and a Litespeed T1sl and I’m golden on these two rides .

[@oldguyandabike]

Thanks. Just being me. gg

Great review!!

Thanks. gg

[@brikaf6001]

awesome vid! Thanks!

[@James-bt9og]

Nice review. I have a similarly built ADHX and my experience is quite similar to yours. I live in an area that has a few hills a lot of various types of gravel. I think it excels when I just want to ride without planning a route, meander through some hills and take gravel paths. While I have also taken it on some more sandy gravel rides, I did not enjoy this so much (on Tufo 36 speeder/thundero). However on hard gravel, the bike and tyre combo is great.

[@moobaz8675]

Nice overview. Enjoyed that 👍. I ended up ordering a LOOK 765 Optimum. Similar gearing and seat post but with Corima wheels and 32mm Pirelli tyres. Can't wait to pick it up next week. Also know what you mean about Ti.

[@gc641]

I have a time izon disk, and that bike will do whatever my capability is,hard to explain, my Cervelo soloist on the other hand just wants to go fast. My next bike will be the adhx

[@jayobannon5359]

I just built up an all road Ti bike. Enjoyed seeing another build a bike with similar components. I used the seatpost, handlebars and wheels that you did. I am a Rene Herse tire guy. Perfect for this 70 yr old.

[@oldguyandabike]

Quite a coincidence! You make wise choices! gg

[@paulround4691]

Absolutely a great no bollox review!

[@oldguyandabike]

Thanks. Glad it came across. gg

[@hutchy_4297]

I got a white one with 2x grx di2 and got the grx wheels for it. I'm running 34c vittoria corsa control pro I have ridden 1900 miles on mine and I love it. I'm saving my ti rime brake bike for summer only:)

[@oldguyandabike]

I like a white bike...timeless. gg

[@sccxvelo]

Know what you mean about the rain in SoCal wrecking some of best time of year to ride before the summer inland heat. Local clay dirt trails and roads in hills and long false flats next to the San Gabriel Mountains is now clay adobe mud that leaves ruts and destroys bike parts. Live in one thoes locations where just a easy ride means 1000ft climbing in 10 miles.

[@oldguyandabike]

Yep...my ride the other day was 100 yds of bike carry uphill and then a bit of shoe goo scraping. THEN the sandy soil and pedaling finally. But the ground is so saturated. Just oozing out of the ground everywhere. Nice to see, but inconvenient. gg

[@joefenech6839]

Great detail in your review…. I ride the exact same drive train, including cassette and chain ring ratios. My bike is an Aethos with about 6000 miles . I am interested in your Rolf wheels and your seat post for my bike. I appreciate your comments

[@oldguyandabike]

Both are well worth a look. gg

[@WontonRanger]

Time with Rolf wheels.. my dream

[@oldguyandabike]

It is a very satisfying bike to ride. gg

[@tonyg3091]

I am torn between this green beauty and the white one. Agonisingly tough choice.

[@Chris_Rides_Bikes]

Hey Old Guy, great video..just found your channel.. question for you- was the ADHX 45 available when you got this bike, and, if not, would you have considered it if it had been available? I'm looking at a bike that can do gravel as well, but not looking for a drop-bar MTB ;), I would assume a 45mm tire (as on the ADHX 45) would be more than enough for anything i want to ride one and also give me the option of a second wheelset for road tires.. thoughts? Thanks!!

[@oldguyandabike]

It was not. That come out later on and I was looking for a true road bike, although the ability to run up to a 38mm tire on the ADHX was nice (I have never done that though). So I would not have taken the slight geometry hit on the '45' version (pretty much just longer chain stays) as it would have done nothing for me. That said, I think the '45' would be a GREAT choice for a one-bike-solution build. Based on my time on the ADHX, I think it would be quite good as a road bike as long as you were not looking to be the pointy end of the spear and, while it would be a bit steep in geo for my tastes here out west, it should be quite good in the dirt as well. gg

[@stevehazlewood2960]

OK Old Guy, just bought the same frame last week and am building it up with all Campy mechanical and Zonda disk wheels...that would be Chorus group..50_34 and 11-34...will report back when done and see how it goes. I am 70 and 195 lbs...live in SF CA so not to far from you....

[@oldguyandabike]

Nice. Campy mechanical! Ride safe and let me know what you think. Is that SF the Bay Area? gg

[@stevehazlewood2960]

@@oldguyandabike yes sir... San Francisco native...I think the bike will be on the road in about a week, will let you know how it goes..

[@stevehazlewood2960]

@@oldguyandabike also the only problem I see with the frame is to change the rear shifter cable you have to remove the bottom bracket...ouch

It is a Large. gg

[@valmorell]

Something about us older guys: somehow, in the back of our minds, we know we will be back on a metal bike in the end. Carbon is like an interesting break, nothing more. At 75, I'm back on metal after 30 years on carbon, and finally feel settled....

[@oldguyandabike]

I understand. Weird, that. gg

[@samuelhughes1739]

Can I see you ride up a mountain

[@oldguyandabike]

Come on along in June for the Climb To Kaiser. There will be plenty of mountains. gg

[@neilwheel]

The 2024 model has had geometry changes and has gone from an allrounder to a gravel bike. Shame.

[@oldguyandabike]

Are you thinking of the ADHX 45? That is the gravel bike. gg

[@neilwheel]

@@oldguyandabike the adhx45 has replaced the original adhx to give it fat tyre clearance, but stretches the wheelbase in doing so.

[@dustinowilliams_TIME]

@@neilwheel The ADHX is not being replaced by the ADHX 45. These are two totally different bikes. 😉

[@petersouthernboy6327]

Two different bikes.

[@thelmaviaduct]

If I had adhx money, I'd be buying Ti. The bike is very nice, but it's plastic, just like all other carbon bikes. Other than say a Moots, I'm not sure the perfect bike exists. Personally I'd buy a Litespeed G2, if it had internal routing and a GT logo on it, it would be perfect.

[@oldguyandabike]

I get it. Remember I ride a Ti gravel bike and an aluminum bikepacking rig. But man that ADHX is such a lovely bike to ride. gg
